Our Story

Missionary Diane Gorham is passionately sharing the gospel through her ministry, Children’s Ministries Agape Farm.

MISSION Statement:

Inspire individuals to:

Experience God’s forgiveness of sin
Enjoy God’s indwelling presence in their daily living, and
Discover their God-given talents expressed via infinite ventures

VISION Statement:

Extend and practice the love of Jesus Christ on 900+ Zambian acres in the “bush of Africa”, impacting students and villagers via schools, gardening, safe water, clinic, vocational training, the Jesus Film, etc.

Our Impact

Agape Farm is a non-denominational Christian organization providing education from preschool to grade 7, teaching farming skills, and offering medical clinic services. It is located in a rural area of Zambia, Africa, where the community’s living conditions are primitive. It can be challenging to find clean water, adequate shelter, and employment.

To make an impact in these conditions, Diane and Children’s Ministries Agape Farm addresses opportunities for economic development and encourages hard work and Christian discipleship.

The ministry extends its reach by visiting prisons, hospitals, and mental institutions, ministering to those who are sick or who may be forgotten.

We make our own bricks on-site, using termite hills. The bricks are 10 times stronger than purchased materials.
